I recently attended a "goth" wedding and busted out the old red corset for the occasion.

Here it is with the bustle on top of the corset, as it should be. The bustle is lined with net and has a small stuffed pad to keep it poofy like that. I was just going to wear drawers or a petticoat under it (I'm not making a full skirt) because I'm doing a "bordello" look.

I finished the bustle. I used the Laughing Moon Saloon Gal pattern. The bustle was a little involved but not that hard to put together.

So, I finished the corset for the "absinthe" costume.
